Edward Morgan of Drumgath
« on: Wednesday 26 April 17 15:58 BST (UK) »
I don't know much else about Edward Morgan then he was a labourer as told on his marriage certificate and that is his father was called Owen Morgan and was a farmer I believed he married a connection of mine called Bridget Loy( Don't know when she was born) They got married on 13 Nov 1865 in Cullyhanna Chapel, Co Armagh

I have not found any children born in the marriage so I was wondering if anyone had Edward in their family tree and if they know what happen to Bridget

Thanks to anyone for information
